SUMMARY:Book Talk: Liberalism Against Itself
DESCRIPTION: Is it time to let go of Cold War-era liberalism? This is the a
 rgument that Professor Samuel Moyn makes in his new book\, Liberalism Aga
 inst Itself: Cold War Intellectuals and the Making of Our Times. Moyn\, a 
 professor at Yale University and Non-Resident Fellow at the Quincy Institu
 te\, looks at the staying power of the version of liberalism that was cons
 tructed in the Cold War era. The book details Moyn's view that this type o
 f liberalism is devoid of a compelling positive vision and has actually im
 peded liberalism's progress by giving fuel to the forces that are prone to
  restrict and dilute it. This most recent work builds upon his book from 2
 021\, Humane: How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War\, i
 n which he documented how efforts in opposition to American wars have incr
 easingly focused not on ending them\, but on making them less brutal - but
  in doing so potentially has made them more endless. To discuss the foreig
 n policy implications of his new book's thesis\, as well as to reflect on 
 how Humane's core thesis has held up amidst the war in Ukraine\, Moyn was 
 joined by Elizabeth Beavers\, Vice President for Public Affairs at the Qui
 ncy Institute. Their conversation was moderated by Anatol Lieven\, QI's Eu
 rasia Program Director.    Download the full webinar transcript here.
